Hi Guys,
Thanks for the help. Tobias got me on the right track when he said:
"It seems things crashed when Squeak tried to _save_ the zip it just loaded[1]."
For some reason windows (and I guess the Squeak 5.1 install) had the c:\Program Files (x86)\Squeak... folders marked as read only and had some other security flags set that may have denied saving other files in that folder tree. I changed all that manually and the Seaside install seemed to proceed okay after that. I will play with it in a day or two.
Many thanks to all.
Lou

Hi All,
I want to install Seaside on Squeak (on windows for now). The instructions for installing Seaside say to install Metacello first. The instructions for Metacello say to run this snippet:
Installer gemsource project: 'metacello'; addPackage: 'ConfigurationOfMetacello'; install.
But when I run the above snippet it fails with:
UndefinedObject(Object)>>doesNotUnderstand: #binary
I don't know how to copy more of the stack or I would include it here. I did use the feature to send a bug report but I'm hoping someone can tell me how to get around this while the bug report is being looked at.
here are some observations: first, I just tried the snippet in my Trunk image, and it worked. second, I found your other post with the log file and the crash dump, It seems things crashed when Squeak tried to _save_ the zip it just loaded[1].
Please see whether this goes away if you download this file http://seaside.gemtalksystems.com/ss/metacello/ConfigurationOfMetacello-topa... directly into the package-cache and maybe even load it from there.
Hope this helps
Best regards -Tobias
PS: Yes, this actually should work. If it doesn't y'all allowed to hit me :D
[1]: Side note: It works like this:
- Download .mcz into squeak image
- Open (deserialize) .mcz into Monticello data
- For caching, serialize the Monticello data just deserialized into a _new_ .mcz in the package-cache directory.
Thanks in advance for any and all help.
